Classical Complement Pathway (CCP)

Target
CCP
Molecular classification
Enzymatic Cascade, Immune Pathway
01

Overview

The classical complement pathway is a tightly regulated enzymatic cascade initiated mainly by antibody-antigen interactions. It orchestrates multiple defense mechanisms—opsonization, chemotaxis/inflammation induction, direct cell lysis—and links adaptive immunity with innate effector functions through its unique recognition mechanism centered around antibody engagement.
